Bug Party

This party was so much fun to plan! The bug theme was so cute for a large crowd of young children. The boys and the girls had a blast hunting for (plastic)bugs!

A first birthday baby looks so cute with a matching bib and a cute party hat!

The "smash cake" is another fun element exclusive to the first birthday...who doesn't love to see the birthday child dig in to their very own cake???

All of these details really complete the look of a first birthday and allow for awesome pictures!!

Personalized bug catchers for the boys.

For the girls, butterfly nets to hold their bugs.

Check out all the fun bugs on this cake!

The kids had a blast picking them off and eating the bugs!

Tinkerbell Birthday Bliss

Tinkerbell has made her way back into the hearts of little girls (and grown up ones) everywhere! Most toy stores have cute plates and napkins and other accessories with her image. Want to go a step (or two) further? We can help!!!

Ah! It is a living room transformed into a fairy wonderland! What could be better in the eyes of a Tink fan?

Fun cookie craft- Providing projects for guests to do becomes essential as children get to be school-aged. This helps all children to feel included and engaged as well as giving them a structured activity to enjoy and remember as opposed to being left to run around for two hours.

Cute personalized "name pins" - Having name tags might seem like an old tradition but it is a nice touch which lets each guest know they were expected and allows them to feel like they are a part of the party.

Decor is never essential but it does make a world of difference! The look on a child's face when they enter a decorated room is priceless. Filling a room with wonder and excitement is such a special touch!

Fairyland Decor - NOW AVALIBLE! We are now offering Fairyland Decor as a rental item! Please contact us today for details.

Tinkerbell makeovers for 20 anyone? Anything is possible! With a bit of brainstorming and a little thinking outside the box, your Tinkerbell party can have those adorable plates and napkins PLUS so much more!!

At the ice cream social the children each got

an ice cream shaped package of bubbles with their name on it.

These shirts were for the birthday girl's two sisters.

Embellished tops - what better way to distinguish which kids belong with the birthday baby!

We can jazz up a shirt for your guest of honor as well...the possibilities are endless!
